Humanity heating planet faster than ever before, study finds Researchers identify sharp rise to about 0.35C every decade, after excluding natural fluctuations such as El Niño

It doesn’t matter whether the rate of global warming is increasing. It’ll never cease to amaze me that people don’t care that it’s happening at all. It should be the most alarming thing ever.

Indigenous Australians share the racist messages they receive online: ‘No one’s feeling safe’ Australia has announced an inquiry into racism and hate directed at First Nations people, as Lidia Thorpe says racism has ‘never been this bad’

Important read about the incredibly ugly racist hate, abuse & threats Indigenous Australians get

"Many noted a marked uptick in violent rhetoric since the failed voice to parliament referendum in 2023."

“A lot of people in general feel really comfortable being racist.” 1/

Moralists don't really *have* beliefs. Sometimes they stumble on one, like on a child's toy left on the carpet. The toy must be put away immediately. And the child reprimanded.

“That's 40 *cents*. Cents are a form of currency one hundred times smaller than the reál. I'm not even going to take this. Come back when you have 130 reál.”

Isn't it... evil? The order of magnitude between what is asked of a person -- and what they have?

The UK government didn't want you to see this report on ecosystem collapse. I'm not surprised | George Monbiot It took an FOI request to bring this national security assessment to light. For ‘doomsayers’ like us, it is the ultimate vindication, says Guardian columnist George Monbiot

Please spread this far and wide, as stories don't get much bigger than this. When the government blocks even the intelligence services from telling us we're heading for environmental catastrophe, you know we have a problem. A very big problem.
Thank you.

Number of people living in extreme heat to double by 2050 if 2C rise occurs, study finds Scientists expect 41% of the projected global population to face the extremes, with ‘no part of the world’ immune

People in 2050 would give trillions of dollars just to have the climate that we enjoy today.

The biggest risk in this moment is something sociologists call “symbolic compliance.”

That’s when an institution that is violating civil rights gives the public just enough symbolic victories that accountability efforts lose steam before there has been any meaningful change.

I don’t think people quite understand that the occupation by ICE in the Twin Cities has more or less erased non-white people from public life. They cannot safely exist in any space accessible to the public and moving between private places leaves folks vulnerable to kidnapping by armed masked goons.

Today is the last day that you can repost this image

The EPA has removed references about humans causing climate change from its website. No US government website can be trusted for science information.

Doesn’t matter who you are or where you went to school…

This is, of course, why reactionary movements of all stripes seek so diligently to destroy social trust. An atmosphere of corrosive cynicism is conducive to authoritarianism. "I can't trust anyone, better just find protection from the biggest guy on the block."

Female resident of Wang Fuk Estate sacrificed own opportunity to escape fire by going door to door in inform neighbors of the fire, saving the lives of 4 people and 1 dog. Her husband says that she held onto her principles to the end and would not have regretted her decision.

This was the first time I’d ever heard of Moral Scrupulosity OCD, spent an hour reading about it and about half that time also crying, I’ve never seen this part of my internal experience ever described before 🤯😭
